The influence of an external magnetic field on the rest potential ΔE0 of ferromagnetic and nonferromagnetic electrodes is studied. The shift E0 is measured as a function of magnetic field magnitude and direction, pH, ...

The application of a magnetic field unexpectedly alters the rest potential of ferromagnetic electrodes in paramagnetic solutions of their salts. Anodic shifts of up to 60 mV in a field of 1 tesla were observed for 1M iron ...
